lets look for something
lets find something
lets find something worth looking for
lets imagine
"stop" you say
"i dont have an imagination, i've lost it"
lets look for you imagination
where do we start

lets look for a place
lets find a place
lets find a place worth looking for
lets imagine
"stop" you say
"i dont have an imagination, ive lost it"
lets look for your imagination
where do we start

we walk to and alley
and search high and low
behind boxes, doors, and stairs
but find nothing

we are now in a dark room
searching without sight
we find many things
hope, smiles, we even find love
but no imagination

we end up in an elevator
we press every button
and we search every floor
but come up empty handed

we are now back where we started
you look hopeless
you say "we've searched everywhere"
"we've seached high an low, and found nothing"
and with a sigh
"im never going to find my imagination"
i reply
dear, we never left this room
we never searched for anything
you imagined it all

memento mori
